My senior year in high school, my Dad bought an old 4WD Jeep. Through the years, the road has been graveled and is nice enough, except when the creek gets up.

And, I live on a dirt road now, but it never gets slippery.

It is so windy outside, I've been out setting up plants all morning. It's around 55, gonna get in the mid 30s tonight.

After the gravel roads thaw from winter, they sure seem like dirt roads. The plows go down and end up throwing the gravel to the sides. Doesn't make much sense to put gravel down...plow it off and then come spring...work it up and put more down.

Diana, I'm so glad you finally got your snow, I know you've been wanting some for quite a while now. It's going to get into the 30's today, but Thursday and Friday it's calling for temps in the high 50's....yay....I sure hope so. Hope it's even warmer for the weekend.
